Frequently Asked Question
Why is a live agent important for business?
There are many customer interactions that can be automated, but consumers are moving towards companies that offer RESULTS. For those that cannot or should not be automated, a live agent is required. Also, there are far too many companies attempting to automate customer interactions with inadequate tools – these are causing great frustration and giving AI a bad image. Our AI tools can often provide better customer support than a live agent alone.
What does a live agent do?
A live agent is often referred to as the “human in the middle” or “HITM”. Many business tools can function mostly without a human but will require a human touch for minimal interaction. Many times, live agents are required to handle technical support or taking orders.
Does live chat increase sales?
According to CrazyEgg, 38% of consumers are more likely to buy from a company if they offer live chat support. Plus, chat is a great way to bring visitors back to your website, as Emarketer discovered that 63% of customers were more likely to return to a website that offers live chat.
Live chat has become the leading digital contact method for online customers, as a staggering 46% of customers prefer live chat compared to just 29% for email and 16% for social media.
What is the advantage of a live agent?
Good live agents improve customer loyalty and retention. This lowers the cost of acquisition or re-acquisition of lost customers, and provides ideal business outcomes. Outsourced live agents can lower the cost by 70 percent.
Why do customers prefer live agents?
Many customer interactions can and should be automated. But consumers are often frustrated when they have an uncommon question that requires a human touch. A live agent is often necessary because automated systems just cannot handle the wide variety of possible issues a customer may have.
